Meet Kami Sid, Pakistani transgender artist and activist who is breaking barriers with her work

As a Pakistani transgender model, public speaker and social activist Kami Sid has recently made international headlines by breaking stereotypes against trans community in Pakistan through her powerful fashion shoot that seeks trans equality and #LGBTChange.

“Her work has been pretty influential in trying to end transphobia at home and aboard, she has recently moved forward to promote transgender rights, LGBTQI and gender equality through her NGO SUB RANG SOCIETY and as a queer activist and blogger myself who is also passionately working for LGBTQI rights in Pakistan I am happy to nominate Kami Sid as my hero, role model and inspiration.” adds Salman Khan founder of www.Queeristan.com
